Experts warn that “the substitution of machinery for human labour” may “render the population
redundant”. They worry that “the discovery of this mighty power” has come “before we knew how to
employ it rightly”. Such fears are expressed today by those who worry that advances in artificial
intelligence (AI) could destroy millions of jobs and pose a “Terminator”-style threat to humanity. But
these are in fact the words of commentators discussing mechanisation and steam power two centuries
ago. Back then the controversy over the dangers posed by machines was known as the “machinery
question”. Now a very similar debate is under way.
After many false dawns, AI has made extraordinary progress in the past few years, thanks to
a versatile technique called “deep learning”. Given enough data, large (or “deep”) neural networks,
modelled on the brain's architecture, can be trained to do all kinds of things. They power Google's
search engine, Facebook's automatic photo tagging, Apple's voice assistant, Amazon's shopping
recommendations and Tesla's self-driving cars. But this rapid progress has also led to concerns about
safety and job losses. Stephen Hawking, Elon Musk and others wonder whether AI could get out of
control, precipitating a sci-fi conflict between people and machines. Others worry that AI will cause
widespread unemployment, by automating cognitive tasks that could previously be done only by
people. After 200 years, the machinery question is back. It needs to be answered.

Leia as afirmações a seguir para responder à questão.
I. Redes neurais alimentam o mecanismo de busca do Google, o assistente de voz da Apple, a identificação de fotografias no Facebook, as sugestões de compras da Amazon, os carros autônomos da Tesla. II. O temor de que as máquinas substituiriam o trabalho humano era real há duzentos anos, mas superado na atualidade. III. Steven Hawkings e Elon Musk especulam se a I.A. pode sair do controle, levando pessoas e máquinas a um conflito somente visto em obras de ficção científica. IV. Duzentos anos atrás, a controvérsia sobre os perigos impostos pelas máquinas era conhecida como “a questão das máquinas”.

A questão refere-se ao texto destacado a seguir.
If there is any doubt about the persistent power of literature in the face of digital culture, it should be
banished by the recent climb of George Orwell's 1984 up the Amazon “Movers and Shakers” list.
There is much that's resonant for us in Orwell's dystopia in the face of Edward Snowden's revelations
about the NSA [...]. We look to 1984 as a clear cautionary tale, even a prophecy, of systematic abuse
of power taken to the end of the line. [...]
However, after “THE END” of his dystopian novel 1984, George Orwell includes another chapter, an
appendix, called “The Principles of Newspeak.” Since it has the trappings of a tedious scholarly
treatise, readers often skip the appendix. But it changes our whole understanding of the novel. Written
from some unspecified point in the future, it suggests that Big Brother was eventually defeated. The
victory is attributed not to individual rebels or to The Brotherhood, an anonymous resistance group,
but rather to language itself. The appendix details Oceania's attempt to replace Oldspeak, or English,
with Newspeak, a linguistic shorthand that reduces the world of ideas to a set of simple, stark words.
“The whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought.” It will render dissent “literally
impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it.”
